Blueberries

The UC Small Farm Program has helped lead the way in introducing blueberry production to California farmers. Advisors continue with blueberry field research and outreach to interested growers. Most early blueberry acreage planted in California was on smaller farms, while larger parcels are also being planted with blueberries.

From Santa Clara to San Diego counties, each Small Farm Program advisor has some expertise with growing and selling California blueberries. Methods for staying competitive in the blueberry market vary by region.
